Tunnel flanges fit and new Catto prop
1/16/2012
I didn't end up having much time to work today. I did run by the hangar and verify the fit of the tunnel flanges. They are spot on!. I need to figure out the screw layout and install the nut plates. The sheet metal should go quickly.
I also unpacked the new propellor from Craig Catto. It is gorgeous and I can't wait to see how it performs. Catto also cut and fit the spinner so a bunch of work was saved on my end. The diameter is 72 inches and the pitch is 58 inches. It weighs 17 lbs, which is half of the old metal Sensenich prop.
Here's the fit tunnel flanges and a shot of the prop sitting on an engine stand.
